Zeke partied 3 days in a row for his birthday this year. The first day was not his party, but a birthday party for a friend. Nora kind of weaseled her way into that party too (with the blessing of the hosts!) and they both had a great time.
The next day was a family party. I had visions of making a layer cake with something pirate-y on top, but in the end we opted for cupcakes with pirate flags. I'm so happy with how they turned out!
Zeke got fun presents - several books, some clothes and some summer toys.
And two new beyblades - he was hoping for those!
And, on the third day, we invited his friends over for a movie party. We had plans to watch Planes and eat popcorn, but the kids were happier to eat popcorn, run around, and play. We had the movie on in the background and popcorn everywhere - and fun was had by all.
After the movie we did presents, followed by cupcakes with Dusty Crophopper flags.
It was such a fun friend party. I was a little nervous because we had never done this before, but it turned out to be a smashing success. I loved getting to know his friends and meet their parents. Lots of fun for me too!
And- Zeke lost his first tooth a few days before his birthday, and his second about a week after. A great present for a 7 year old.
